I am here for Friends

About Me

read all about it in my friggin BLOG gosh darn it!

My Interests

dolphins, unicorns, buzzards, sandwiches, true love, corndogs, fashion dos and don'ts, carousing, garlic, mangina, la-z-boy recliners.

I'd like to meet:

Myself before each of my tough college exams, with the answers to the tests to give my past self. I was never a very good student.

Music:

Smooth jazz, Reggae/doo wop fusion, horrible jingles, zamfir.

Movies:

Antonioni, Alphaville, wonky old sci-fi like Logan's Run, Bunuel, and by extension of my love of absurd and artsy European Modernist film love, I'm currently stuck on Kaufman's works, and I thought Tim Burton's Big Fish was pretty damn good....

Television:

I scare myself with how much I like to watch sports on television. Just about everything except auto racing.

Books:

Catch 22, 100 Years of Solitude, Steinbeck, Haruki Murakami...just read Lovely Bones, which was pretty good, but then I read the Winter of Our Discontent and it blew me a way. Right now I'm reading Don Quixote. I have some catching up to do.

Heroes:

Believe it or not, I'm walking on air. I never thought I could be so free. Flying away on a wing and a prayer, who could it be? Believe it or not, it's just me.

Warning! Portland Bar Owners! Warning!

This is just an observation. But if many more of you people open bars in town, there won't be anyone to go to any of the bars in town. Seriously. Also, guess what, the rest of your friends are startin...

Beware the False Spring!

Those fickle demi-gods, both angels and demons, collaborate this time of year in the Northwest. The angels reap the hope brought by good weather, on days such as this one, when woeful winter eyes awak...

I'm sure many of you know of the comments made by Tim Hardaway, the five-time NBA all-star who will no longer (for the time being) be allowed to attend all-star events due to his hating on Gay people....
